THE REAL ESTATE DEMAND.

The demand for Salt Lake real estate
is steadily on the increase. This demand
is very largely from Eastern capitalists.
From the first of January to the present
writing 100000 worth of Salt Lake
real estate has changed hands,
at figures satisfactory alike to the
seller and purchaser. The sales during
last week aggregated $1O1 ,0OO BY far
the larger portion of this amount was
paid to Salt Lake citizens by Eastern capi-
talists. This week has already witnessed
a transfer of real estate amounting, all
told, to $73, 900. One of these sales alone
amounts to $65, 900. The latter property,
thus royalty purchased, lies in
the center of the city, and it
is the intention of the Eastern
buyers to erect upon it mammoth hotel,
or magnificent business block. A lot
on the drive south of Liberty Park
brings its former possessor $4, 1000, and a
lot in the Tenth ward has been sold for a
like amount. The Liberty Park lot is an
Eastern purchase, and will be i'm
proved. And yet the morning Church
organ, with a brazen falseness only
equal to its malicious spite, says that
there is no evidence in Salt Lake City of
a real estate boom. That boom is i'm
possible. That Salt Lake property can
not be sold, and that Eastern capitalists
are afraid to invest. But the time has
passed for the utterances of interested
mendacity to excite anything but won
dering contempt. Their falsity is written
on their face, The city has already OBJ
tanned position that misrepre-
sentation assails in vain. Salt Lake real |
estate will continue to come into market, !
and its price will advance with the sales. |
Her real estate is our city's wealth, and |
hat wealth asserts itself in tones that
brook no contradiction.

sent Alsace and Lorraine in the Reich
stag. Their pronounced French sym
pathies and uncompromising hostility to
the Government have ended by grating
on the susceptible nerves of the great
Chancellor, and, finding that few
months Imprisonment has had no per-
ceptible effect on NJ Antoine, he has cut
the matter short by shipping him out of
the country and turning him loose on
French Territory. This is absolutism OF
the very highest type, and, according to
the dispatches, the expulsion has caused
a great sensation at Paris where it is
looked upon as gross and fresh instance
of German proyocation.

he takes other means of a radical nature
to suppress his political opponents. NJ.

KIssANE is said to be rich and re-
formed. If this is so it would have been
well for him to have proven the latter
through the means of the former. Re-
funding the money to those who were
the victims, would have indicated the
sincerity of his reformation, and entitled
him to the sympathy of others than those
who naturally fawn upon wealth, no
matter how UNANIMOUSLY obtained.

President on the 18th of October is
favored on the ground that it would be
for the public benefit if this body could
begin its sessions every year as early as
that date. Legislation looking to such
an end was proposed at the late session
and should have been adopted.

He Split Granite With His Fist.
From the New YORK Mail and Express.

EIUul Juo lNcW loih Mah oiu AAAPAoo1s
A good-looking young man strolled
into big brewery in Harlem yesterday
and asked for glass of betr. The
owner of the brewery said he was
probably the strongest man in the
world. He is Mr.. Charles Miller. Ten
years ago he went to California. He
made money and is now on pleasure
trip East. He developed his pheno-
menal strength at an early age. Being
in no need of money end disliking
publicity Mr. Miller has refused many
offers to give exhibitions of his powers.
However, he consented to show the
reporter what he could do. With ease
he placed two men, weighing not less
than two hundred pounds each, on a
table and then lifted table and all above
his head. After one or two perform
ances of this sort Mr.. Miller remark' d
that his chief strength lay in his hands
and the force with which he could
strike Q blow. A small boy was sent
into the street and returned with an
ordinary paving stone, weighing fifteen
or twenty pounds. Then Mr.. Miller,
for the first time stripped himself from
the waist up. Immense masses of
muscle stood out from his chest and on
his shoulders, giving him almost the
appearance of deformity. He placed
the granite block on an anvil, with the
smooth side up. He stood several
PAGES from it and began to swing his
right arm. After several revolutions
he took one step forward and brought
his fist down on the granite block,
splitting it in a number of pieces. His
hand was little red, but otherwise
seemed unhurt.

and ordered her representatives TO pay
the amount. They delayed matters
until the figure was reduced to $40, 1000,
which was accepted.
The conditions OF delivery were
severe. The messenger with the mon-
ey was to leavs New York city at 10
D. m, alone, with one-horse wagon,
and drive into Westchtster county,
along a lonely road which was indicat-
ed on map sent by the thieves. Some
time before morning, If the man was
acting in good faith and was not ac-
companied or followed by detectives,
he would be met and given further
directions. A young relative of Mrs.
Stewart undertook the hazardous err
rand. 1t was three o'clock in the
morning when masked horseman rode
up, gave the signal agreed on and
turned the buggy up lonely lane.
The strange visitor here left him, d.
recting him to drive on. AT the end
of another mile another wagon blocked
the way. He paused. A masked man
promptly appeared and brough. for
ward a bag TO his buggy, saying:
"Here tbs; where's the money!"
"Where's ths proof os IDENTIFY"
asked the messenger, as the bag con
tanning the mortal remains of A. T..
Stewart was lifted into the buggy.
Here" said the other, holding up
an irregular bit of velvet and opening
q bull's-eye lantern. The piece was
compared with a bit of paper of the
same shape which the New Yorker had
brought with him to this lonely spot.
THE $4,000 PAID OVER.
"Come, hurry up" was the CON-
msud. The messenger obeyed by pro-
ducing the money and the robbers re-
tired few feet and counted it by the
light of their lantern. Then they
moved off to their vehicle and the
messenger of Mrs. Stewart drove back
the way he had come. The next night
freight car went out to Garden City
containing nothing except a trunk and
on it sat man who had spent the
previous night in the loneliest part OF
Westchester courty. An empty coffin
had already been deposited at the
cathedral and at dead of night two
men transferred the bones to it from
the trunk.
They then placed the coffin in ar
inaccessible vault beneath the dome
If anyone should ever again touch un
bidden the vault which holds the bones
of the merchant millionaire, the touch
would release hidden spring which
would shake the, chimes in the tower
and send an instant alarm through the
town.

Weddings in Colonial Days.

In Mr.. Sanford's "History of Con-
necticut," recently issuen, is the follow.
ing: "Weddings in early colonial
days were usually quietly celebrated at
the home of the bride. With the in
crease of wealth there was a marked
change in this respect. Not only were
the banrs proclaimed in the church,
but a general invitation was given
from the pulpit to attend the ceremony.
Friends and neighbors we're entertain
ed with lavish hospitality at the
brides house. On the wedding day,
muskets were fred; and those who at.
tended the ceremony marched in process
sion to the brides home. The wedding
feasts lasted sometimes for 2 or 8 days.
AT a grand wedding in New London,
on the day after the marriage ninety
two ladies' and gentlemen, it is said,
proceeded to dance ninety-two jgs,
fifty-two contra-dances, forty-five min
uets aud seventeen hornpipes."

District 8. 8, Convention.

Sunday school convention held in
H eller's church, Madison Twp, Oct.
20. Convention opened with music,
"Praise Ye the Lord"
Devotional exercises by Rev. Guldln.
Music, 'sAll Hail the Power of Jesus
Name"
Rev. Guldin spoke on the topic,
care festivals Objectionable as a means
for raising funds for carrying on Sun
day school work. He said that fes-
tiyals were no worse than many other
things that were in the Sunday school
but he thought it was very poor way
of teaching the young generation to
give.
Mr.. Suplee thought it was tempting
the people to aid in the Sunday school
work, and the thoughts that passed
through the minds of the boys as they
looked on the candies and sweet-meats
were perhaps not always what they
should be, but it is better to have festl-
walls than to abandon the school for a
lack of finance.
Opening p. m. Dew otional exercis-
es by Rev. Guldin.
First discussion by President subject:
"Pienics". Picnics are not always
what is claimed for them and are dis
astrous to schools who do not hold
them. l believe they should be classed
as necessary evils. Rev. Guldin en-
Joys picnic and thinks a Sunday
school should have one annually. Mr..
Beagle favors picnic. Mr.. Suplee
said, "When l was young we had Sun
day school celebrations" There ought
to be good sound address at every pic
mic and scholars who just come before
the picnic and drop off right after
should be considered as useless persons
TO the school.
Opening of question box. This was
a new but very interestin" feature OF
the convention. The answers will sug-
gest the questions.
Christmas trees are about the same as
picnics.
The scholars should have the ques
tions asked generally, but all should
be gotten out of each scholar possible
The questions should be given accord
ing TO he ability of the pupils.
How can we interest parents in the
Sunday school? Rev. Guldin sale
"that's sticker.' The parents should
bs at the school every Sunday. They
should be insisted to come aud hav,
special invitations.
The Sunday school be opened by {

Appointment of committee on time

HOW BEN. BUTLER GOT RIoH.
YOUNG MEN OF TO DAY MAY DO LIKEWISE
n THEY FOLLOW ADVICE GIVEN.


General Il. f. Butler being asked for
some suggestions on gaining success,
stated that when he was young law.
yer, practiciug in Lowell, Mass, a bank
president advised him TO take his little
deposit and buy real estate, from which
be could be deriving some revenue.
The general said he had but little mon
ey and was uncertain as to his future.
"Never mind" said the bank presi-
dent, "go TO the next public auction Of
real estate, bid off lot with building
OF some kind on it, pay down what
money you have and give your prom,s-
sorry notes for the balance. Yon will
come out all right
General Butler says this advice was
good. When man has obligated him.
self, by his notes, to pay money at a
certain time, it inclines him to economy.
He followed the advice, and in time
became the owner Of several parcels of
of valuable real estate in Lowell.
1--we, classes will not be likely to heed
such advice--the improvident and the
over-cautious. The latter will be apt
to say: at would be all right but for
those dreadful promissory notes. They
are always running on and il man
falls sick they do not wat for him to
get we'll"
There is this danger, of course, but
one can make no business venture with
out some risk, and with the knowledge
acquired by recent Investigations of the
cause of most ordinary ailments, and
the means of cure, one runs little risk
from that source. II is now known
that most of the common ailments. have
their origin in deranged kidnsys. They
are the chief blood purifiers of the sys.
